Abstract

A high-strength thermally-isolating surface-mounted anchoring system for a cavity wall is disclosed. The thermally-isolated anchoring system is adaptable to various structures, including high-span applications, and for use with a split tail veneer tie. The anchoring system includes an anchor base and a stepped cylinder which sheaths the mounting hardware to limit insulation tearing and resultant loss of insulation integrity. The anchoring system is thermally-isolated through the use of multiple strategically placed compressible nonconductive seals or elements. Seals are also provided to preclude penetration of air, moisture, and water vapor into the wall structure.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The invention relates to anchoring systems used in a construction industry in general and specifically relates to the anchoring systems for insulated cavity walls.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] In the past, anchoring systems have taken a variety of configurations. Where the applications included masonry backup walls, wall anchors were commonly incorporated into ladder- or truss-type reinforcements and provided wire-to-wire connections with box-ties or pintle-receiving designs on the veneer side.

[0003] In the late 1980's, surface-mounted wall anchors were developed by Hohmann & Barnard, Inc., now a MiTEK-Berkshire Hathaway Company, and patented under U.S. Pat. No. 4,598,518. The invention was commercialized under trademarks DW-10®, DW-10-X®, and DW-10-HS®. These widely accepted building specialty products were designed primarily for dry-wall construction, but were also used with masonry backup walls. For seismic applications, it was common practice to use...
